My phone took a dump recently. The touch screen doesn't work, and I can't unlock it. I'm trying to access/transfer data and files off the phone and onto my computer but i can't seem to get to them.
I've heard of some methods involving software and cables, and i'm not handy with software and dont want to get the cables unless there's no other choice. I dont know of any other methods, and i need some help, image not related

TL;DR My screen is fucked on my phone and i need to get into the files/transfer them off the phone. Wat do
